Basketball GAME THREAD: Purdue vs. Rutgers

[robjknight]

Pike on radio said 7 guys had the regular flu this week and overcame it. Amazing effort in difficult circumstances. He said Cliff’s return from tunnel was a big plus to team psych! He praised Mag

Wow -- listened on Radio call (while watching - of course); if you didn't hear the radio call - find it; Austin went nuts. You win.

 

[RUGiddy777]

I’m still in shock, holy moly

+1. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched the ending since the ending.

Anyone else in trouble for waking up their babies/toddlers?

 

[RUGiddy777]

Just want to add - Caleb McConnell. Really great job getting his season back on track.

The best way to watch/listen to any RU game (football or basketball) if one is not there in person is to watch the game on whatever service you have and then the listen to the radio broadcast for the sound part of the game!

Wow, this win was the biggest since the football win in 2006.

Mag needs to play 25 min a game.
Paul
Caleb
Mag
RHJ
Cliff

that's our best lineup right now. Let Geo come off the bench.

not to dampen the mood but god damn, if not for the lafayette loss our season would be right on track

Go RU! What a win!

League needs to look at film of Edey elbowing defensive players. They need to clarify with all league refs what is acceptable. Being 7’4” is not an excuse to swing elbows at head level of defenders. Edey and Williams had long offensive stays in the paint.

Not going to lie, the tv broadcasters today were excellent. Thought the Harper shot call was also great

I feel like Caleb changed his game to play to his strengths recently. Mainly defense and mid range jumpers, mostly off the pass or unsettled situations.

OMG I ALMOST WOKE UP MY WHOLE HOUSE!!!

...I did wake up my whole house. 😬 I was having a really bad day, so.

I woke up all the babies and toddlers in Essex County

Unbelievable win. Harper and McConnell were fantastic.
This was the worst reffed game all year - even Hummel was commenting on it. We could have won by 10 if the game was called evenly.

True. But I’m pretty happy with the way it ended.

Yes this he solved it

Makes it even sweeter to shove it down their throats
